‘Again, you can’t connect the dots looking
forward; you can only connect them looking
backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will
somehow connect in your future. You have to
trust in something — your
gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach
has never let me down, and it has made all the
difference in my life’ (Steve Jobs, 2005).
